I spent two days gigging at RentAHuman and didn't make a single cent

- RentAHuman is a new platform where AI agents hire humans to perform physical tasks in the real world.
- The site was developed by Alexander Liteplo and Patricia Tani, resembling a basic version of freelance sites like Fiverr.
- Users must connect a crypto wallet to get paid, with bank account options currently non-functional.
- Tasks listed include posting comments, following social media accounts, and delivering items, often for low pay.
- Many tasks appear to be marketing ploys rather than genuine AI-driven needs.
- One task involved delivering flowers to Anthropic, which turned out to be a marketing stunt for an AI startup.
- The platform has faced issues with scammers, logistical problems, and lack of genuine AI-driven tasks.
- Founders compare RentAHuman to task-accepting apps in Westworld, but the platform is still in early stages.
- Overall, RentAHuman seems more focused on AI hype and self-promotion than actual utility.
